5 Tips for Accessible Elections & Polling Places
Manage episode 406263984 series 3553547
Today, I have my 5 Tips for Accessible Elections and Polling Places. These are not official DOJ or US Access Board tips; they are my practical tips that will help any elections or polling place official trying to make their facilities more accessible.
Tip #1 – Start with Full Compliance First. I.e., the removal of all barriers.
Tip #2 – Recognize that full compliance may not always be achievable.
Tip #3 – Use the “Approach, Enter and Exit” methodology.
Tip #4 – Start with Parking and work your way into the voting areas.
Tip #5 – Temporary measures are your friend.
